The Beška Bridge ( Serbian Мост код Бешке Most kod Beške , Hungarian Béskai völgyhíd ) leads the European route E75 and the Autoput A1 at Beška in the Vojvodina province in Serbia across the Danube . It consists of two prestressed concrete bridges that look the same , which were completed in 1975 and 2011 respectively. With a total length of 2205 m, the Beška Bridge was the longest of all Danube bridges.

The first bridge was designed by Branko Žeželj , who also built the Belgrade Exhibition Hall 1 , the Danube bridge Žeželjev most from 1961 in Novi Sad and the Belgrade Center train station . It was built by Mostogradnja between 1971 and 1975 .

It was bombed twice by NATO as part of Operation Allied Force , on April 1 and 21, 1999. However, it was temporarily stabilized and on July 19 of the same year as an important link between the European route E75 and the Belgrade - Novi motorway Sad - Subotica to be reopened.

The second bridge for northbound traffic was planned by Leonhardt, Andrä and Partner and built between 2008 and 2011 by a consortium led by Alpine Bau .

The main bridge is a cantilevered , 540 m long prestressed concrete bridge with pillar spacing of 60 + 105 + 210 + 105 + 60 m and a haunched box girder with a construction height increasing from 2.50 m to around 11 m. The 1485 m long northern and the 180 m long southern approach bridges are plate-beam bridges .

The bridges, originally designed for three lanes each, are now used as a two-lane motorway with one hard shoulder each.
